25th Anniversary of The Challenger On Friday
I can't believe that it's been 25 years. I was in school when I heard the news. You?

Damn, thats heartbreaking.

Whats going to be even more heartbreaking IMO, is if NASA doesnt get the funding it needs to keep manned space flight going, to build better craft & continue to push further into space. Our next 3 missions will be courtesy of Russia in the Soyuz, thats not right IMO. There was a great write up in USA Today about the disaster & its after effects, the entire program started a slow decline after this.

You should have read a bit more - it's not true - some fabricated horseshit from a tabloid.

I was a college junior then, had the Price Is Right on as beckground noise while I was finishing my linear algebra homework. They had just begun to spin the wheel to determine the 2nd spot in the showcase when Dan Rather broke in.

My band was in the studio. My singer and I had just pulled into the studio parking lot from a McDonald's run, when the bass player stuck his head out for the front door of the studio and announced that Challenger had just blown up...

I remember being in the 3rd grade at Seltzer Elementary in Wichita, we were coming back from recess. Our teacher was obviously upset and when we all sat down, she told us she had some very bad news. At first I though our class did something wrong because she was so visibly upset and could not get the words out. She took a deep breath and told us there was an accident with the Challenger and none of the astronauts survived. They put the TV in the library, and our class watched the news about it there with the 4th grade as there were only 3 TVs in the entire school. I just remember being stunned, upset, sad. I know only 7 people died but I remember it being the same as when I heard the news about 9-11, just a stunning moment where you remember where you were, what you were doing, ect.
